Gmail weirdness?

[deathpixie]

Is gmail down for some people? I can't get even the log in page to open, but it could be my work servers again...

Not that I should be looking at it - staff meeting this morning and Sonia decided to point out my lateness as me being selfish about my hours and not indulging in the "give and take" required in the workplace. Never mind the subway decided to be extra slow today and I have a medical certificate saying my meds will make me sick in the morning.

Is Sonia the new one? Did she say this "in front of the class" as it were, or to you privately?

And how is you being late selfish about your hours? I don't even think that phrase makes sense. You're... hoarding time? If you work late to make up for it, which you do, that's not actually possible.

(and gmail is fine for me)

We had a meeting this morning and I was 15 minutes late for it. So when I got there, she said: "I understand you get in later, but sometimes we have to arrange meetings earlier and we all have to give and take to make the most of everyone's time." In front of the rest of the support staff.

Once I would have put up with, however she repeated it at least twice more during the course of the meeting, regardless of the fact I'd already explained the subway was slow. So she basically humiliated me in front of everyone and tried to make it seem like I'm being selfish by coming in at 9:30 like I've already arranged and have medical evidence supporting the need.

And grf. I keep getting the server error when I try to open gmail, either with my bookmark or via the Google home page. Bah.

...who can you talk to in the building about things like this? Mild harassment and whatnot. Because that's borderline.

Obvs, you'd talk to her first, but come on. The subway. Was slow. You apologised. FIN.

I completely agree. That's borderline harassment - ignoring a medical requirement and reprimanding you in front of other people.

She needs to be told to stop, either by you or by HR.

Boss = total gunchpuppet.

So much hate for her right now...

...this Sonia person sounds kinda like a jackass. o.O

I give you the same advice I give my roomie: remember, if you stab them, they win. :)

[deathpixie]

She's just one of those by the book anal retentive managers who is all about Efficiency and Team Building and anyone who doesn't fit her idea of the perfect employee gets this passive agressive crap.

No stabbing. Just hate vibes from my desk for a bit. ;)

Seriously, don't stress yourself with hate vibes. Report her. If she keeps going with that, you'll get sick. And then you should sue.

*hugs* Management lady sounds like a real piece of work.

And my gmail was behaving at work, but now I have "temporarily unavailable" messages. Gnar.
